J. Fearnley vs A. Mannarino — ATP Montreal R1 (1/64), hard.

MODELS vs MARKET
  ELO A 0.503 | ML A 0.583 | model A 0.566 | Pinnacle no-vig A 0.611
  Book A 1.57 / B 2.37 | Betfair A 1.56 / B 2.42
  Commission-adj eff odds: A 1.532 (imp 0.653) | B 2.349 (imp 0.426)
  ML + model + market all lean Fearnley (~0.56–0.61). ELO is the lone
  outlier at a coin-flip.

ELO/RANK SANITY (decisive)
  Fearnley rank 123 but ELO ~ level with Mannarino (rank 45) = classic
  HIGH-ELO / MODEST-RANK divergence. His rating is farmed off Challenger
  fields (Bloomfield Hills, Newport, Montreal challenger — opp ELO mostly
  1500–1800). So the ELO coin-flip is NOT trustworthy and cannot be leaned
  on to manufacture a Mannarino price. Discount ELO; the credible models
  (ML 0.583, model 0.566) sit right on the market.

RECENT FORM (last 5)
  Fearnley (A): Won Montreal-Final 08-01 vs Ofner 7-6 6-2 (2-set win,
    GRIND/title); Lost Bloomfield Final 07-26 vs Michelsen 1881; Won SF
    07-25 vs Zheng 1803 6-3 6-4 (DOM over Strong — genuine); Won QF 07-24
    vs Wolf 1658 (3-set grind); Won 07-23 vs Boyer 6-4 6-4. Red-hot,
    match-sharp — but the field is Challenger-tier.
  Mannarino (B): Lost Washington 1/8 07-29 vs Michelsen 1894 6-4 7-6
    (competitive); Won 07-28 vs Tien 1928 7-5 6-4 (real Elite win); then
    mostly grass/clay losses. Lefty vet, hard court his best surface.

SHAPE / PATH
  Fearnley SHARPENING on hard (DOM over Zheng, title 08-01), deep match
  play, 4-days-more loaded (612 vs 202 min/14d). Age 25 recovers fast;
  2-set win yesterday = ~neutral (no 3-set hangover haircut). Market over-
  prices the "tired" story — no drift here to exploit.
  Mannarino rested 4 days (last 07-29), not rusty; one strong hard result
  (Tien) but thin sample.

FATIGUE
  Fearnley heavier cumulative load but only a 2-set win yesterday + age 25
  → cumulative minutes = context, not an edge. Roughly equal for betting.

NARRATIVE
  No let-down trigger vs the staked side. No surface transition (both on
  hard). Venue: Fearnley match-sharp in-city, amplifies nothing decisive.

GATES
  G1 edge-origin: FAIL — no side clears 5% exchange edge pre-narrative.
    Fearnley ~0.56 < 0.653 needed; Mannarino ~0.44 vs 0.426 imp = ~1.4%.
  G2 consensus:   n/a (stake-tier only) — ML+model+market consensus on
    Fearnley; ELO outlier is contaminated (farmed).
  G3 fatal-risk:  n/a (ML, no margin bet).

MARKET CHOICE
  alt_markets: handicap/totals/model null; only Betfair ML available.
  AH: not quoted. No margin read available.
  Best expression would be ML; neither side clears its min bar. No edge.

VERDICT: PASS. Credible models sit on the market; the only disagreement
(ELO coin-flip) comes from a farmed Challenger rating and is discounted.
Efficiently priced — no stake.
